"If there is one thing we can definitely say Emma Daues has given to the whole Bitsy community, it's crabs." - Duckling J. "Ducky" Smith, Bitsy warlock

"Emma Daues, recognisable in sprite form via her cute twin-bun hairstyle. The left bun stands for Pastels and the right bun stands for Hhhhhhh I Did Not Expect To Laugh/Cry So Much." - Freya C. of Communist Sister Interactive

"Emma has so thoroughly tied her Brand™ to crabs that I feel really bad when I kill a Giant Enemy Crab." - R25th, alt-control dev & Boy connoisseur
